    What are the options on the lights? RX-350 projectors?

    Kevin why is that tab always broken on most bhlms that I see? Is that tab on the way when removing the headlight? If so I have to consider to keep an eye on that when removing mine.

    It happens in shipping. It’s very important to package these lights up well and make sure everything is protected. People don’t always think about the fact that UPS is damn reckless with your packages!

    Is there a good write up/video/wiring diagram for installing the retrofits? I have never done anything like this before. It comes with a wiring harness and, 2x ignition wire, and 2x ballasts. Should there be two harnessss? I don’t want to rip my front end apart and then find out I don’t have all the parts.

    Included is: 1 relay harness, two ballasts, two igniters.

    The relay harness should have a positive and negative terminal, they go to your battery terminals. Two plugs labeled ballast, go to your ballasts. The plug labeled oem input, goes to the driver side low beam plug (passenger side low beam plug gets left unplugged). The igniters go between the ballasts and the low beam bulb (two single plugs hanging out the back of the headlight). The high beam splitter that should already be plugged into the headlight housing, gets plugged into the high beam plug on the truck.

    Message me with any other questions, but that should about cover it.

    Here’s another set I just finished up for a local guy. Bhlm, halos, and smoked turn signal cover. Such a good look!

    Hey Kevin,

    How much does this setup run? I have a spare set of HLs I've been sitting on for a while. Debating on selling them or pulling the rigger on the BHLM.

    These are my final three plugs on drivers side. Which one goes to oem plug? Based on the way it looks I think yellow.

    Do I plug the other two together. Hopefully someone can respond soon...trying to get this figured out while there is still light

    I need some BHLM on my truck. This way I can put some bright LED bulbs in them. I have some Tacomabeast ones that cant run LEDs due to "voiding warranty". If you got some lmk, I can send my stockies with cash. Probably end up selling the tacomabeast ones too

    That’s what I’m asking. I think the yellow male plugs into the black female. However, for the life of me I can’t get the green to sit properly in oem from the harness. It seems like the rubber seal is too big

    No, I mean what does each of the plugs go to. Headlight, ballast, igniter, bulb?

    I believe yellow plugs into the high beam. I was able to make those connections on both sides. I believe the green is the low beams from the car harness that is supposed to connect to the oem input on the morinoto harness but I can not get it to seat so that the lock engages and it doesn’t fall apart.
